          <dc:description>In this paper, we present two new spines for ribbon disc complements. We describe Craggs's 3-dimensional spine and introduce a 2-dimensional spine ${\cal W}\sp2$ which we show satisfies the homotopy reciprocity law. We demonstrate that the reciprocity property remains invariant under insertions and conjecture that the property is invariant under deletions. If this is the case, then the ribbon disc complement spines described here satisfy the reciprocity law and, hence, are Kervaire.</dc:description>
